DESCRIPTION
The ceremony of tea drinking has roots in many traditions and is a way of honouring the many human and non human guest. It can offer us openings to a place of stillness, comfort and abundant healing whilst inviting us into a deeper connection to self.
In this gentle reflective session we will use tea as a means to reconnect to our intuitive self whilst honouring each other including our herbal plant allies.
BIOGRAPHY
Rabiah Mali is a qualified Medical Herbalist, Creative and Community Healer. She set up The Herbal Blessing clinic in 2015, a sliding scale community clinic with the intention of ‘reconnecting’ the community with their inner herbalist. Offering consultations, workshops, retreats and walks and holistic therapy that is rooted in traditional and spiritual plant-based healing.
Her work involves the use of nature and local plant-based knowledge to nourish a feeling of home in communities where poverty, poor health access and gentrification has fractured the sense of belonging. Rabiah is the co-founder of the Green Deen Tribe, which she founded as a response to the need to heal the wounds of separation and lack of access to nature by Muslim Women, which is all too often rooted in colonisation, racism, other socioeconomic factors and radicalised Islamophobia.
